Some device drivers reset their stats at down/up events, possibly fooling bonding stats, since they operate with relative deltas. It is nearly not possible to fix drivers, since some of them compute the tx/rx counters based on per rx/tx queue stats, and the queues can be reconfigured (ethtool -L) between the down/up sequence. Lets avoid accumulating 'negative' values that render bonding stats useless. It is better to lose small deltas, assuming the bonding stats are fetched at a reasonable frequency.
